Landlord pays gas and Tenant abuses

Alejandro Ferrer
Posted

Hell bp community, quick question. 
 I’m wondering if a landlord,who pays the gas bill,can tell his tenants to not have the furnace on when no one is at home. Usually during morning working hours. The gas bill has been coming in pretty high lately.

You can ask, but they really have no incentive to comply. 

Why are you paying the bill instead of them?

The gas meters aren’t separated. One meter is for 2 units. 

 Get a submeter to bill each tenant their portion
